Floating Water Catcher

thingiverse

This innovative device addresses water scarcity issues by collecting evaporated water from surfaces. The top cone section, printed in black to absorb heat from the sun, transfers this warmth to both air and water, promoting evaporation. Condensed water then gathers on the cooling fins and is stored in a reservoir. A rain-catching feature is also included at the device's apex. However, a convenient pouring mechanism requires further consideration. The structure is designed for upright printing but may require careful removal due to its delicate middle cone. While ABS was used during initial printing, PLA is recommended for human consumption purposes, as suggested by the original design inspiration.
